I knitted you a hat all blue and gold
|
To keep your ears warm from the Binghamton cold.
|
It was my first one and it was too small.
|
It didn't fit you at all, but you wore it just the same.
|
|
I remember the first time we danced.
|
I remember tunneling through the snow like ants.
|
What I don't recall is why I said,
|
"I simply can't sleep in this tiny bed with you anymore.".
|
|
I should tell you that you were my first love.
|
|
So it's Christmas time, it's been three years.
|
And someone else is knitting things for your ears.
|
|
I have come to learn I'll only see you interrupting my dreams at night
|
And that's alright. And that's alright. And that's alright. And that's alright.
|
|
I should tell you that you were my first love.
|
|
And it's alright. And it's alright. And it's alright.
|
|
(And it's alright.) We were seventeen again together.
|
(And it's alright.) We were seventeen again together.
|
(And it's alright.) We were seventeen again together.
|
|
I should tell you that you were my first love.
|
I should tell you that you were my first love.
|
|
We were seventeen again.
|
We were seventeen again.
|
We were seventeen again.
